Hi there, and welcome to my website. My name is Ethan Collister and I'm a songwriter from Calgary, Alberta.
What's new, you ask? Well, I recently returned from a surreal three months in India. I traveled through desert, through mountains, and gazed across the mystical waters of the mighty Ganges. I was fortunate enough to meet an excellent music teacher in Varanasi, and I humbly took up study of the sitar.
Since my return I have found my way back to my lonely lookout tower in Alberta's great North. The quiet reprieve of the forest is good medicine, and I am working diligently on new material. I have a collection of instrumental arrangements coming together, as well as a collection of lyrically based songs. These should take shape and find their way to tape by the fall.
In the meantime, I am playing at the North Country Fair in Slave Lake this summer and I'm hoping to find my way to another festival or two before the leaves begin to turn. Keep your ear to the ground and your eye on my gigs list and perhaps our paths may cross in some strange and wonderful place.
Thanks for dropping by and hope to see you again soon.
Sincerely,
Ethan Collister
